Fixed braces or Invisalign for healthier teeth and a beautiful smile

Teeth straightening can be carried out in a few different ways. It can either be carried out with fixed braces that are attached to the surface of your teeth and remain in your mouth for the duration of the treatment, or it can be carried out using removable aligners which can be taken out of your mouth and replaced at your convenience. The type of braces that are most suitable for you depend on your individual orthodontic needs, but also your personal preferences. Both types of braces can address complex orthodontic issues although one may take longer than the other. Some patients may need a combined treatment plan and on rare occasions you may need both types of braces to address the misalignment issues of your teeth, but also be in keeping with your personal preferences.

Fixed braces and Invisalign

Fixed braces are the most tried and tested for teeth straightening with traditional braces being used for over a hundred years. Removable braces such as Invisalign London were first introduced in 1999, but having treated more than 14 million patients in this short amount of time there is extensive evidence to show that Invisalign London is also highly effective at correcting misalignment issues of the teeth. Whether you have a crooked, wonky smile or you have overlapping teeth, overcrowded teeth, protruding front teeth, gaps between the teeth or if you suffer from a bite disorder, both fixed braces and Invisalign London can be used to improve the alignment of your teeth, enhancing the appearance of your smile and promoting better dental health at the same time.

Invisalign for discreet teeth straightening

The difference between the two types of braces is that fixed braces are often highly visible in the mouth, especially in their traditional form which consists of metal brackets and wires being fixed onto the front surface of your teeth. There are more discreet versions of traditional braces, however for patients looking for complete discretion, Invisalign is the ideal choice of braces for you.
